Ep 17 | Best of 2017: Joyful Show Highlights
Karin and Kristyn wind down the year with a look back at some of the shows that made the biggest impact on them and on you, our listeners!
During the show, we play some of our favorite clips and talk about the impact they have made on us and how they influenced our work as KonMari consultants.
Creating a podcast that focused on the KonMari Method has been our shared vision since the very end of 2016. We spent the first half of 2017 researching, preparing and putting all the pieces together and finally launched on August 31st.
We are so grateful to all of our guests for their talents, wonderful stories and the amazing tips and tools they shared with us.
Our listeners have been amazing. We have learned so much via your questions, comments and feedback. Thank you for being a part of Spark Joy!

“We are proud to announce since we launched Spark Joy on August 31st of this year we’ve received over 40,000 downloads!”
“It starts as just a means to get the house in order, but I don’t think most of us really expect the snowball effect!”
“The clutter never lies and the truth is often in the clutter.”
“I remembered resistance I receive from clients around trying something a new way because obviously my way isn’t working.”
“This idea that we honor the item by showing appreciation for what it meant to us, and making sure the item goes on to it’s next useful life.”
“I believe that organizing is really just lots and lots of small steps and lots and lots of small decisions.”
“It’s ok if every rule in the book is not a perfect fit for your life! If you even apply 50% of the method you’ll notice an improvement in your lifestyle, so it’s not an all or nothing deal.”
“We’ve got an amazing line-up for 2018, more guests who exude joy and embody the KonMari lifestyle that we’ll share them with you each-and-every Tuesday.”
